I am he who through that long November
night
Watched your eyes with untamed delight,
Earnestly travelling into the mystery of
your mind;
In the highnoon of heart we heard and
spoke the same notes;
I am he who once held you in willing
arms,
Unknitting wells of passion beneath
your heart;
I am he who wrote a Writ with you,
Sowing in your heart a Promise not to
break the shared bond;
I am he who, in trust of love, am a voice
echoing in the skies;
Faithed, in a leap for your love, and your
hand, and that look in your eyes;
The sea here sheds tears as it the earth
crushes,
The shore beside me pains as water race
back to their depths,
And I am he who with confused past
shares the anguish of the sea.
Farewell!
And now I turnto be living with your
memory, without blaming fate.
